THE FUSE

There’s something distinctly South African about the way we live in summer. As the mercury rises and the days stretch longer, our homes instinctively expand outward-spilling onto patios, unfurling across terraces, and claiming every sun-drenched corner of outdoor space we can find. It’s where we gather for lazy Sunday braais, where sundowners become rituals, and where the best conversations happen under string lights as the evening cools.
